The End of Summer

Sitting quietly in the shade, watching a blue wren bustling about her nest
The rush of bird wings in flight
The hum of bees
Zebra finches squeaking
The dog shaking himself after a snooze
The distant sound of a lawn mower
Birds twittering
The tin roof creaking as it warms and cools
The buzz of dragonflies
A breath of wind
The occasional rustling of leaves
A pesky fly
The quiet sounds of the earth being slowly baked in the sun


A blue wren nest
